The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
Eden Ahbez, "Nature Boy" (1948)
(Yea, yea, yea)
[Verse 1]
I hope you're proud of me
Dude I grew to be
Ingenuity influenced by your eulogy
Now listen here to the story of Bo Diddley
The rock 'n roll scene in general
Bo Diddley was born Ellis McDaniels
In a place called McCoom
In Mississippi about 1926
Tomorrow is Sunday
Now there's only one day left to go
Till you walk by
Below my window
The weekends drive me mad
Holidays are oh too sad
A friend brought me flowers, she said they were lilacs,
But I've never been good with plants.
Her next presentation, a new dictionary,
She circled the word "romance".
So enthusiastic, a little bit drastic,
All the times you came
I should've ran away
You told me that you'd always love me
You told me that you'd always love me
You never send me flowers
You don't want to hold my hand
When I was sad or lonely
You used to understand
Maybe these are the tell tale signs
Of our love slipping away
Đóa hoa tình nở âm thầm nhắc ta rằng đã bao lần yêu em say đắm
Cuộc tình nồng nàn để rồi tan theo giấc mơ mùa đông
Đóa hoa tình vẫn âm thầm nhắc ta rằng dấu chân người yêu nay xa lắm
Nhìn lại đời mình để rồi thương bao bước chân phong trần
Đành chào nhau để quên hết bao ân tình
* No promises no debts
Decided it was time to take a boxcar ride
Outa the rain snow and cold
Me and a friend of mine
Guy I met somewhere down the road
I didn't think too much about books and schoolin'
Cause there was more important things to do
I'd just sit out in the yard and pick my old guitar
Tryin' to do what the big hillbillies do
I would sit there by the hour pickin' wildwood flower
My eyes are dry, my love, since you've been gone, I haven't shed a tear,
I'll never cry, my love, though every day seems like a hundred years,
For I'm just a fool who clings to his pride but when I'm alone,
I can hear the sound of rain in my heart, of the tears that I hide,
And it tears me apart, 'cause I keep them inside,
I can't get away from the sound of the rain in my heart.
